The ARTELP works like this:
A spark of electricity is created in the gun. The current then travels thru the gun to a transformer, where the power is greatly enhanced. It then runs down the barrel and gushes out in a comrpessed line, until it comes into contact with an uninsulated target. In the test, the target is an H-5 Demon mech. The gun must be completely insulated or its wielder will be killed.
